Click a column heading to sort all 254 counties. A suppressed estimate (coefficient of variation ≥ 0.30) shows a marker, never a guess. County seats are from Wikidata (CC0), each validated to a Census place inside its county. Where Wikidata has none, the seat comes from the page cited for that county in the seat file, and where the table names no seat, it says why. See the methodology.

- Calculated: population density = population ÷ land area (people per sq mi) (method)
- Calculated: state totals = sum over the state’s counties (population, land area, water area) (method)
- Calculated: averages per county = state total ÷ number of counties (method)
- Calculated: population shares = county (or top-5) population ÷ state total × 100; “half the residents” = fewest largest counties whose populations sum to ≥ 50% of the total (method)
- Calculated: medians across counties = middle value of the county values (mean of the two middle values for an even count) (method)
- Calculated: spreads = highest county value ÷ lowest county value (method)
- Calculated: income tiers vs poverty = mean poverty rate of the N highest- and N lowest-income counties, N = min(10, ⌊counties ÷ 2⌋), only for states with ≥ 6 counties (method)
- Calculated: rankings and superlatives = highest / lowest county value; suppressed values excluded (method)
- Calculated: water share = water area ÷ (land area + water area) × 100 (method)
- Calculated: square miles = TIGER AREALAND or AREAWATER (m²) ÷ 2,589,988.11, rounded to 2 dp (method)
- Calculated: neighbors and border length = counties sharing a boundary arc are neighbors; border length = shared arc length after clipping coastal and Great Lakes water (method)
